What you'll do

Impress your team and clients with the most mesmerizing creative experience - Suminagashi ink marbling, sake, and hand dipping a set of 4 coasters to keep. Suminagashi, Japanese for “floating ink”, is a traditional art form from the 12th century that reveals the meditative, ever-changing nature of water. The coasters can be branded on the bottom!

In this exerience, we will be creating a floating piece of art on the surface of the water and capturing the swirling, ever-morphing moments as prints on coasters.

In this highly present, highly engaging experience, participants will connect with nature, embrace the Japanese concept of wabi sabi, and gain a new understanding of fluid dynamics as we incorporate natural forces such as breath and vibration into our art to create visual harmony.

Sake makes an unexpected chemical reaction with the ink and is used in the art work itself, so those who don't drink can still enjoy the experience fully.

At the end of the experience, everyone will walk away with a renewed sense of wonder, 4 hand-dipped coasters, and a Sumi kit for de-stressing that will last for years!
